    My oil pressure gauge is acting up, not sure why

    when I get the chance I will replace it and let ya know

    My oil pressure gauge is acting up, not sure why

    that other reply was supposed to be posted earlier but I have found the issue, I checked the ohms at the oil pressure unit, truck on and truck off and truck on showed close to zero resistance on cold start so I am very certain it is that, the ohm reading didn’t match up with where it should have...

    My oil pressure gauge is acting up, not sure why

    That’s wiring diagram actually helps a bunch I also was looking back in my photos when before I put the new motor in and the gauge worked as it should have so I think I got a ****** sensor cause I went back and looked on the one on autozones website and it’s a ****** sensor, most people had...

    My oil pressure gauge is acting up, not sure why

    Ummm what does the shunt resistor look like and where is it located at ?

    My oil pressure gauge is acting up, not sure why

    Yes I replaced the stepper motor on the back I did not know there was a shunt resistor and I will have to go back and check I know I have a good ground to cab, not sure about filler cap to frame one, and I know the one that’s supposed to go from frame to engine is gone and I plan on replacing...

    My oil pressure gauge is acting up, not sure why

    also if it’s not mechanical what would it be circuit wise ? Cause I have replaced both sending unit and the gauge motor in the cluster and cleaned the connections that go from the truck into the gauge cluster, so I’m not sure what else there could be

    My oil pressure gauge is acting up, not sure why

    Is there anywhere else to tap into for oil pressure, the sending unit is unable to get reached because of how the previous owner did the electronics, I will have to tear apart most of the intake for this so I am wondering if there is any other spot I can tap into or if that’s the only way

    My oil pressure gauge is acting up, not sure why

    I have not had a chance to, but the motor is brand new, and I have driven it enough to where if the gauge was correct it would have came apart, so I don’t think it’s a mechanical fault but I will be getting a mechanical gauge and checking here shortly

    My oil pressure gauge is acting up, not sure why

    So I have looked around and can’t find anyone with a similar issue, here goes. So since I got the truck back on the road with a brand new shop built motor ( known good shop ) oil pressure gauge won’t go above 20-25, on cold start to warmed up it’s all the same, I have a new oil pressure sensing...

    4 inch lift kit for my 1998 duelly truck

    Also another thing, what’s with the rough country lift kits only going up to 1997 ? Does that change anything or can I get it for my 98 and get longer u bolts for the rear leafs and be good ?

    4 inch lift kit for my 1998 duelly truck

    Let me elaborate, I just bought a 1998 Chevy crew cab long bed 4x4, well it used to be a dually and the previous owner left the dually axle and the dually leaf springs, I might sound dumb but if I’m not mistaken the dually trucks had bigger or at least different style leaf springs then the other...
